Whoops - sorry!  I just realized I was writing a response to Shari, not Juanita... 

Hi Juanita When I got to ECH 2-1/2 years ago, I inherited the same COA structure.  In just the last couple of months, I started to tackle this issue to streamline our COA.  We had an account structure of xx-xxxxxx-xx where the first two digits are the fund, the middle six (?!?) digits are what I call the "core number" and the ...

We're relatively new to FE so I'm going to ask a question that might have already been addressed, so sorry if that's the case.   When exporting an income statement from FE to Excel, the column headings and subtotals don't line up under the correct columns.  This of course means going through the spreadsheet and ...

We just viewed a webinar on ABM, and our account rep is on vacation, so I thought I'd see if anyone else could answer this really quickly.

We are just now wading through the task of converting to FE7. Nothing like waiting until the last minute... Anyway, I'm curious whether anyone would be willing to share the latest developments to some of the posts I've read here. Any insight is appreciated! Have response times improved? Does the response time issue seem to be isolated to ...
